KippsDeSanto & Co. is pleased to send you the attached press release announcing the acquisition of our client, Asynchrony Solutions, Inc. (“Asynchrony”), by Schafer Corporation (“Schafer”). Schafer acquired Asynchrony to broaden its agile software development capabilities, as well as add additional depth and breadth in highly sought after federal government and commercial customers.
